No indent string displayed

2009-10-29 Thread Patrick Gen-Paul
I have noticed some threads on another mailing list where the quoting via the "indent_string" character is not visible on some posts, making it difficult to keep track of "who said what". This is apparently not caused by mutt's not displaying the thread correctly, since I see the same thing in

2009-10-14 Thread Patrick Gen-Paul
Is anybody using this feature? One thing that I find mildly frustrating with mutt, is that once you fire up the editor, you no longer have access to mutt's message browsing capabilities. For instance, when I'm in the middle of replying to a message and I need to refer to other messages, I have t
